rubio has been more of the barack obama and hillary clinton model. he's been careful about how he uses that star power and also his opponent is probably paul ryan, who i thought gave a very weak speech at the national review institute. rubio is coming with new ideas and new ideas that will move his party to the center. outstanding choice. >> on immigration reform, he's joined forces with some democrats, comprehensive immigration reform. senator vitter of louisiana calls him naive. so he's getting some criticism from the right. >> naive for some means hopeful and optimistic for others and i think that's what some republicans have been lacking. we've been painted in the times, rightly so, that we're only the guys in suits and business men in an old world. are we the party for everyone? do we have an offer of better way for everyone in the united states, not just our alleged 53% which we didn't even have? and rubio, i think, speaks to that. >> he's got to be really careful in giving that republican response to the president's state of the union address.

remember, president obama hasn't visited israel he's got some criticism for that. this trip will allow him to reaffirm his support of israel and to try to strengthen ties with the prime minister. the two have had a somewhat strained relationship over the last several years. this is an opportunity for the president so send a signal. this is his first foreign trip during this second term. it does send a strong message to isra israel. the question is will president obama offer any proposals to try to move the peace process forward? and vice versa. i asked jay carney that question earlier today. he wouldn't answer specifically expect to say that whenever the two meet, they talk about the peace process. but as our colleagues at first read reported this morning, it is unlikely that president obama would have agreed to such a trip unless he believed that netanyahu would be putting something on the table to try to move the peace process forward. i believe one of the reasons is to move their relationship forward over the next few years. >> the backdrop to any such meeting i

earlier today president obama asked that deadline be pushed back a few weeks. if sequestration were to go into effect, it would mean massive automatic spending reductions, politicians in congress are looking for a catchier term than sequestration but they keep putting it off. but haven't delays always been the hallmark of our government? a $5 billion lawsuit related to the housing bubble. the obama administration and a growing number of states are suing standard & poor's for the way it rated mortgage bonds from 2004 to 2007. you might recall those bonds were rated just a tad high. sometimes aaa ratings for bonds backed by mortgages even when those mortgages were for people with no realistic shot at ever paying them and everyone knew it. the economy subsequently took an olympic-style dive. so why did s&p tend to give them such high ratingses? this may or may not be relevant but the company that issued the bonds were the ones who paid s&p for the ratings not suspicious at all. this may also be why prosecutors accuse s&p of giving the wrong ratings on purpose. but
